The Montage Episode

Mail + Scooter = Superhero

Today a little love arrived by scooter.

A late birthday present from Rock'n Rebeqa.

It was filled with delicious delights,

but truth be told,

the post-its sold the show.

Like a montage episode,
the notes remind me of our favorite plot lines
and end of season cliff hangars.
In my mind the scenes of our days on the beach
intercut with snowball fights
and long winters by the fire.

It's the perfect look back
on why my sister has and will always have
a staring role in my Drama.

Live'n the Rock & Roll lifestyle

Never thought I would be living the Rock & Roll lifestyle.

Nae-nae & Harri-bou living the transit lifestyle

Never went to a big stadium concert.

Didn't follow popular bands.

Couldn't pick a Rolling Stones song out of a line up.

Ok, not that I really had anything against it.
I just didn't have anything in common with it.

Rock & Roll was a noise I was vaguely aware of,
like a distant memory you can't quite put your finger on. 

So, when Rock & Roll knocked at our door - I was leery of the unknown.
 Especially as The Rebeqa become more and more involved in the scene.

Like a wary chaperon, I watched.

Watched her laugh, learn and be inspired
by their hard work and dedication.

Watched them help those who can't help themselves.

Watched them love their children and their wives.

Watched them uplift and inspire their fans.

Watched them care for their community.

Watched them protect each other.

 Thanks so their kindness, I've been to a big giant stadium concert

Pearl Jam @ Key Arena

and our family has been welcomed "backstage".

Harry Rock'n his LxL t-shirt

and we got to present emerging Seattle artists in Miami & Monaco

La Familia Artists @ Arte Monaco

La Familia Artists @ Aqua Art Miami

and we learned about bands we'd never heard of

Delivering vocal training CD's to my sister.

But to be honest, I'm not really into hanging with Rockstars 

for the music or the backstage passes.

Nope, I'm just here for the Rock & Roll lifestyle of...

 

hard work
lifelong friends
and the love of family.
